London Terrace was the dream of real estate mogul Henry Mandel, a flashy developer who was a visionary in his day. In the late 1920’s, when the American economy was still strong, Mandel began acquiring land in Chelsea on which to build the largest apartment building the world had ever seen.

By 1929, Henry Mandel owned the city block bounded by Ninth and Tenth Avenues and 23rd and 24th streets. The land was once owned by Clement Clark Moore, who wrote ‘T was the Night Before Christmas, and was located across from the fashionable Millionaire’s Row.Mandel hired the architectural firm of Farrar & Watmaugh to design the massive complex, which was built in two phases.
